Posted: Wed May 23, 2007 11:20 pm Post subject: Looking to set DMX up, and failing.

Two systems. My workstation and laptop. I want the workstation (192.168.1.100) to be the master, and I want the laptop (192.168.1.103) to just be a screen. Will add other "screens" later
On the workstation I run

Code:

/usr/bin/Xdmx :1 -display workstation:0 -display laptop:0 +xinerama

But I get an error "(Fatal Error) dmx: dmxOpenDisplay: Unable to open display 192.168.1.100:0"
on the laptop I run

Code:

/usr/bin/Xdmx :1 -display laptop:0 +xinerama

But I get the same error.
What am I missing! I am feeling very dumb here.

You should not get an error running

Code:

Xdmx :1 -display :0

If you use ip-addresses (or host names), make sure that the X servers are running with tcp listening on, and make sure you don't have any firewall rules blocking anything

The single command works.

Code:

Xdmx :1 -display :0

Run that on my laptop and it goes into client mode. I can check to see it is setup with nmap. I can see that port 6001 is open:

Code:

nmap 192.168.1.103
Starting Nmap 4.20 ( http://insecure.org ) at 2007-05-24 08:49 PDT
Interesting ports on 192.168.1.103:

PORT STATE SERVICE
22/tcp open ssh
111/tcp open rpcbind
6001/tcp open X11:1
MAC Address: XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX (Intel Corporate)

From my workstation I run:

Code:

#Xdmx :1 -display 192.168.1.103:0 +xinerama

(Fatal Error) dmx: dmxOpenDisplay: Unable to open display 192.168.1.103:0

But, as you can see, I am not able to connect. No firewalls turned on. What step am i missing?

I think i misread your previous post

is there an X server running on the laptop?
is it listening on tcp/6000? (for display :0)

check the X process with

Code:

ps -fp $(pgrep X)

it probably runs with -nolisten tcp

ok, here is the feed back, and I think I see the problem

Code:

Would it be the "-nolisten"? And how do I get rid of that!?

It certainly is (see my first reply)!
I'm using xdm and I can control the X servers xdm starts in the file /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers.

Found how to load X with out the -nolisten option, on the client.

Code:

startx -- -br

Dont forget to do an xhost + IP_of_master.
So then, on the master I run

Code:

Xdmx :1 -display 192.168.1.103:0 +xinerama -input :0

And I get a DMX console window, not a new screen. I can move the mouse around in this window, and it works, but how do I get it as a new desktop, and not an application?

I haven't used it in a couple of months, but here is the command I used to start dmx;

Code:

XSESSION=fluxbox startx -- /usr/bin/Xdmx :2 -display 127.0.0.1:1 -display 192.168.1.4:1 -ignorebadfontpaths

The main part here is the "-- /usr/bin/dmx", which makes the startx script(s) use Xdmx rather than the usual X server.
Of course, you can use anything within /etc/X11/Sessions/ as your "XSESSION", or use another method to have the server start what you want,
but I'm lazy and find this to be the easiest way.

One thing I feel I should share from my experiences, although it might not apply to you,
is that in order to be able to drag windows from one display to another you must have xinerama support in the window manager being used
(via USE=xinerama, which is typically enabled by default IIRC), and you must have

Code:

Option "Xinerama" "true"

in the ServerFlags section of xorg.conf on each machine you wish to use.

You should be able to set it up so that xinerama is only enabled in a certain layout, and then pass that layout to the startx command via the -layout option (xinerama disables DRI on one of my systems).

Edit: I should point that in the example command above, I started the "host" X servers as display :1 on both machines, and the xdmx display on :2.
Mostly this is because I was still running my regular session on :0 while experimenting, but also because I discovered the -nolisten option only seemed to apply to :0,
and this seemed less hassle that editing the start up scripts which would just get replaced the next time xorg-server was emerged.
I don't know how much of this is actually necessary, though.

Thank you Hopeless. Command works. But I had to add the local system with xhost. I can get every thing running with raw X sessions. That is good progress! But the problem is KDE and -nolisten. First problem was finding where that option is set. It took some hunting but I found it.

Code:

/usr/kde/3.5/share/config/kdm/kdmrc

And the -nolisten option is stored in:

Code:

ServerArgsLocal=-nolisten tcp

But when I remove the -nolisten option kdm does not start.
Any ideas?

Sorry, not a kde user.

Only thing I have to ask is, when you say you remove the -nolisten option, do you just remove "-nolisten", or "-nolisten tcp"?
It sounds to me like you're just removing -nolisten, but tcp is an argument to the -nolisten flag, as in "don't listen for tcp traffic".

Sorry if I misunderstand you, and even if I happen to be right, I wouldn't think something as simple as this would stop kde from starting up.

Are there no error reports or logs as to why it failed to start?

Well, I have Xdmx running. How do I get KDE, Gnome, or TWM to load after I have Xdmx running?
This just causes an error, with any XSESSION i choose. twm, gnome ,kde-3.5...... And yes I have all parts updated for my system.

Code:

XSESSION=twm startx -- /usr/bin/Xdmx :2 -display 127.0.0.1:1 -display 192.168.1.4:1 -ignorebadfontpaths

But a raw X session and this works, but I have no environment when I do so.

Code:

Xdmx :2 -display 127.0.0.1:1 -display 192.168.1.4:1 -ignorebadfontpaths

the startkde command takes a display argument:

Code:

$ startkde -display :2

does that work?

No luck. Here is my current order of operations.

Code:

#startx -- -br

That starts up X.

Code:

#xhost + 127.0.0.1
#/usr/bin/Xdmx :2 -display 127.0.0.1:0 -display 192.168.1.103:0 -ignorebadfontpaths +xinerama

Every thing comes on-line at this point and I can drag the mouse across both screens. But, how to I lunch an application into this environment? I tried the:

Code:

startkde -display :2

And had no luck. So currently I am starting xdmx on just my desktop trying to figure out how to lunch an application into that environment, like xterm, or something that simple. `xterm -display :2` I will go for the big stuff like kdm when I can get the little things working. Any more ideas out there?

Code:

Xdmx :2 -display 127.0.0.1:1 -display 192.168.1.4:1 -ignorebadfontpaths

It only occured to me a couple of minutes ago while watching tv, but tvm is not a valid value for the XSESSION variable.

The XSESSION variable uses one of the scripts in /etc/X11/Sessions/, so for twm you would use XSESSION=Xsession, and for kde you would use something like XSESSION=kde-3.5 (I'm not sure, as I don't have kde installed at the moment, but I know it is versioned, see what you have in the Sessions directory).

Anyway, the command should work without the XSESSION at the start, it would just use your default session as defined in /etc/rc.conf.

I doubt something as simple as this would stop everyting working, but I thought I should point it out just in case.

Edit: note they are also case sensitive.

I've just the same problems here....
My situation:

Desktop PC with IP 192.168.2.17 und Laptop with IP 192.168.2.20, both running KDE und I'm logged in as normal user.

On Laptop I run

Code:

Xdmx :1 -display :0

as normal user and get a grey display with a X-mouse.

Well, on Desktop I'm running now

Code:

Xdmx :2 -display 127.0.0.1:0 -display 192.168.2.20:0 +xinerama -input :0

as normal user and now I have a wonderfull grey display to with a mouse that I can move from from one display to the other one. Great!

But now i want to run KDE...

Code:

XSESSION=fluxbox startx -- /usr/bin/Xdmx :2 -display 127.0.0.1:0 -display 192.168.2.20:0 +xinerama -input :0

(or XSESSION=kde-3.5.5) brings me the same as without setting the XSESSION variable or running startx...... what I'm doing wrong?

Now it works..... ok, not all:

I started Xdmx with

Code:

Xdmx :2 -display 127.0.0.1:0 -display 192.168.2.20:0 +xinerama -input :0 -ignorebadfontpath

and run in another term this

Code:

sleep 5 && DISPLAY=:2 startkde

The screen loads quiet more than once, but after that I get an KDE Desktop. Of course its the second session of kde and I get a lot of errors (e.g. firefox is already running). An there is another problem: The keyboard doesn't work!!

How do I close the old KDE session and how can I get my Keyboard working??

I truly think we are trying to do way to much. If we can get an xterm running, we can get KDE to work. I also found that for testing a single system does just fine. Just to save some time and headache.

Code:

Xdmx :2 -display 127.0.0.1:0

I found the problem with the not working keyboard. It was the lineakd for my shortcut keys on the board... without this daemon, all is running greatfully. Only the problem that the old kde session isn't closed before running a new is is still there..... i'll working on that. I think the old kdeinit have to be closed or so. One way to kill the old session have to be found because it reduces the performance if there are running two kde sessions.

But when I remove the -nolisten option kdm does not start.
Any ideas?

ServerArgsLocal has a default value if it's not set so if he is simply commenting out that line the -nolisten tcp would still be applied.

Additionally being a KDE user has nothing to do with having a basic understanding of how X11 works, which it seems not many people participating in this thread have. I would highly recommend the lot of you do a lot more reading and a lot less blind fumbling about before you all end up having to reinstall Linux.
